For the year 2013, Kauai realized some whopping increases in median sales prices. There were some decreases as well but they were relatively small by comparison. I'm not making a projection for 2014 but I understand a local economist is predicting continued increases (but maybe not on this scale).

Here's what I forecasted a year ago...more right than wrong but some surprises

For the year 2012, Kauai median sales prices were mixed compared to 2011. I do not expect that to be the case when making the same comparison a year from now. Time will tell and we shall see in January 2014.
